CHARGED WITH MURDER.

William e. Dizan, of Wheelock, a
small town in the northern part of
Caledonia county, was lodged in Jail
at st. Johnsbury on Thursday Of last
week, charged with numbering his in
FAINT daughter. 1t is alleged that when
the infant was three weeks old Dian
crushed its head with a blow of his
fist. There was no physician present
at the mothers confinement, or at
any time thereafter, nor was assist
ance called in from neighbors. The
disappearance of the child created a
great deal Of talk in the neighborhood,
but nothing could be ascertaiued, and
the matter was allowed to rest. This
took place three years ago this win
ter, and since that time the Dizans
have had four children. two being
twins. All these infants Dizan is al
legged to have disposed of in the same
manner-crushed in their heads with
blow of his fist. Dian is about 40
years of age, and five years ago came
to Wheelock from Barnston, Canada.
His wife is also Canadian. Dian
has owned and carried on a small
farm, but bis principal business has
heen smuggling liquor from Canada
and selling it in Vermont. Some two
months ago he was fined 5000 III Cal
edonia county for liquor selling. Last
week he was arrested in an adjoining
county on the same charge, bat was
turned over TO the authorities of Gale
donia, who had been Investigating the
charges of child murder and had OBJ
tanned sufficient evidence to render
his guilt reasonably certain. He has
long borne bad reputation in Wheel.
ock, having been charged with arson
and various other crimes. But aside
from his illegal liquor business, no
proof of crime has been brought for
ward against him. The arrest creates
a great deal of excitement. The pros
ecution is in charge of Alexander
DunL EFT, of st. Johnsbury, the States
Attorney. The prosecuting author-
ties are reticent as to the details of
the evidence against Dizan, reserving
them until the preliminary hearing,
which will be held soon.

HoLsTEKN cows.

BY common consent the dairy
cows were formerly classified in
such a manner as to permit of the
Jerseys and Guernseys holding the
places of honor as special butter
producers. while the honor of being
deepest mixers was given to the
Holstein (Holstein- Friesian) and
Ayreshires. The HolsteIn breed

pressed themselves satisfied with
the position held by that breed for
the production of milk, being will
ing to allow the Jerseys the honor
of being adapted to butter produc
ton with small production of milk.
The Jersey breeders, however, were
not satisfied with their position
and endeavored to impress upon
the farmers a claim that the great
yields of milk from the Holsteins
we're lacking in fat and other
solids, until at last they forced the
breeders of Holstein to meet them
in several public tests, the results
of which were disastrous to the
Jerseys. First, the COW Mercedes
vanquished Mary Ann, of st. Lam
bert's, the champion Jersey COW. of
America, and finally both breeds
met at the great dairy show in New
York, seven Jerseys competing
with six Holsteins. The Holsteins
won both first and second prizes
for the largest yields of butter, Clo-
thilda producing two pounds u
ounces in twenty-four hours, and
Clothilda 18th, producing pounds
ounce. For the quality Of butter,
both in large and small lots, the
Holsteins also won their share of
prizes But the Holsteins proved
themselves superior to all breeds
for yields of milk, they taking all
the prizes, the cow Lady Fay Civ

Admiral Luce makes a sweeping denial of
the story that he spoke of Secretary Whit
ney as dog in Office" and explains very
satisfactorily the blunder Of some one who
heard him apply the expression in connec-
tion with the seizure of the American
schooner Highland Light by an insignificant
little Canadian cruiser, and inferred too
hastily that the American Secretary was
meant. But it is noticeable that Admiral
Luce does not deny the report that he has
asked to be relieved of the command of the
North Atlantic Squadron; and this conspic-
uous neglect strongly confirms the report.
1t is the most natural thing in the world, too,
that he should ask to be relieved. If ever
an officer was abused by his superior, Ad-
miral Luce has been. OF the wisdom of the
distribution OF the circulars of information
there may be a difference of opinion. The
fishermen are reported to be much pleased
at treceiving an accurate statement of the
treatment they may expect should they wish
to seek Canadian ports. and are loud in their
praises Of Admiral Luce; the Portland fish
merchants, at whose suggestion Admiral
Luce secured the information, are well salts
fed with his course If Admiral Luce un-
fortunately gave his information in such a
way az to imply that the United States ad-
mitted the justice Of Canada's regulations,
the men who were embarrassed by it were
the officials of the State Department who
are conducting the negotiations with Great
Britain; and the simple explanation that
the information did not imply any conces-
sion would have been readily understood by
the English Foreign Office. Neither the
fishermen nor the agents of the foreign gov
ernment most interested, demanded the pub
lie humiliation of Admiral Luce, when prl-

The reported resignation of Admiral Luce
Is very likely to prove true. Whatever justi-
hcation. is admitted for Secretary Whitney s
vance of its receipt by the admiral was an
offence against the officers self respect that
was well calculated and apparently designed
to deeply wound him. Even respect for his
own dignity should have induced the secre-
tary to convey the rebuke privately, but that
is a consideration he seems to have ignored
as he did the Official proprieties.
